MILWAUKEE - TelAve -- Manufacturers across the Midwest will converge on October 7, 2025, for the inaugural Midwest Manufacturing AI Summit (https://techedpodcast.com/aisummit/), a one-day event designed to help manufacturing leaders explore the transformative potential of artificial intelligence in their operations.

Hosted in partnership with the Wisconsin Manufacturing & Technology Show (WIMTS) (https://www.wimts.com/) — the state's largest manufacturing event — the Summit will take place at the Wisconsin State Fair Park in Milwaukee and offer attendees a focused, actionable introduction to AI adoption in manufacturing.

"AI is no longer just a buzzword — it's already changing the way manufacturers approach production, quality, maintenance, and workforce planning," said Matt Kirchner, host of The TechEd Podcast and keynote speaker for the Summit. "This event is for companies that are ready to stop wondering and start doing."

• Access to technology & strategic partners who can help attendees take their next AI steps
• Interactive group discussions and networking opportunities
• A final session outlining 10 practical actions manufacturers can take immediately

Attendees will also gain access to the full WIMTS exhibit floor, where dozens of advanced manufacturing solutions will be on display — including a dedicated AI Alley featuring Summit technology partners.

A Curated, Practical Experience

The Summit will cut through the noise and hype surrounding artificial intelligence, focusing instead on the tangible ways AI can reduce downtime, improve throughput, support workforce efficiency, and solve strategic challenges in today's manufacturing environment.
